Europe Roll Forming Body in White Market Analysis and Size
The Europe roll forming body in white (BIW) market refers to the segment within the European automotive industry that focuses on the production of vehicle body structures using the roll forming process. The BIW is essentially the skeleton or frame of an automobile, consisting of various metal components that form the structural basis for the vehicle's body. Roll forming is a specialized manufacturing technique used to shape and assemble these metal components.
Data Bridge Market Research analyzes that the Europe roll forming body in white market, which was USD 1,897.02 million in 2023, is expected to reach USD 2,506.82 million by 2031 and is expected to undergo a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period of 2024 to 2031. The “component” segment is expected to dominate due to the structural components of the Body in White (BIW), such as chassis rails, pillars, roof rails, and floor pans, which are essential for the overall strength, safety, and integrity of the vehicle. These components are among the most critical parts of a car's body structure, and their demand remains consistently high in the automotive industry. In addition to the insights on market scenarios such as market value, growth rate, segmentation, geographical coverage, and major players, the market reports curated by the Data Bridge Market Research also include in-depth expert analysis, geographically represented company-wise production and capacity, network layouts of distributors and partners, detailed and updated price trend analysis and deficit analysis of supply chain and demand.

Market Definition
Roll Forming, a manufacturing process used to shape and assemble metal components, is often used in the production of the body in white for automobiles. In roll forming, a long strip of metal is passed through a series of rollers and dies that gradually bend, shape, and cut the metal into the desired profiles. This process is highly efficient and can produce complex, consistent, and precise shapes for the structural components of a vehicle's body, such as roof rails, side panels, and floor pans.
Europe Roll Forming Body in White Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Automotive Production Growth
The overall growth in the automotive industry, including passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and electric vehicles, is a significant driver for the body in white market. As the demand for vehicles increases, the need for BIW components produced through roll forming also grows.
- Light Weighting Initiatives
Automotive manufacturers are increasingly focused on making their vehicles lightweight to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Roll-formed components are often used to replace heavier components, contributing to reduced vehicle weight and improved performance. Regulations promoting lower emissions also drive this trend.
- Sustainability and Environmental Regulations
Stricter environmental regulations and consumer demand for more eco-friendly vehicles are pushing automakers to adopt materials and manufacturing processes that reduce emissions and waste. Roll forming can be more resource-efficient and less wasteful compared to other manufacturing methods.
Opportunity
- Cost Efficiency
Roll forming offers cost advantages over some other metal shaping processes due to its ability to produce long, continuous components with less material waste. Cost-efficiency remains a key driver in the automotive industry.
Restraints/Challenges
- High Regulatory and Emission Standards
One of the major restraints in the automotive market is the stringent emission regulations and safety standards. Automakers need to invest heavily in research and development to comply with these regulations, which can affect their budget for body-in-white technologies.
- Market Saturation
The automotive market is relatively mature, and the demand for new vehicles is not growing at the same pace as in emerging markets. This can lead to overcapacity and intense competition among automotive manufacturers, limiting their willingness to invest in new technologies.
